I think that fills a lot of the holes about the mysticism of Jesus that believers might have a hard time disagreeing with. I'm not supporting any of the 3 religious concepts, and I'm not naive enough to think fundamentalists believe it, but I think it makes a lot of sense.

Most Buddhist don't support this idea. They do love that Jesus and the Buddha share the same thoughts. Their were Buddhist Monks in the area around the time, so Jesus could have borrowed or supported the ideas Buddhism.

Yet Jesus can not be a Buddhist because said that he is the son of god or is god. He preached against suffering, but he said to end suffering that you MUST go with him.
